Re: [Xen-API] Creating an SR from an already mounted moosefs share

[Edward Ronquillo <eronquillo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Brian, thanks for the info.  It would be a really cool feature to have MooseFS along with NFS on XCP.  For now, I can mount the moosefs shares on the master and metalogger servers and share them with unfs3, and through XenCenter I can import with NFS.  For now, I'll play around with it more.  Thanks again!

Edward,

 

You can create SRs out of physical media, or remote block IO devs exposed under things like iscsi, etc.

 

Depending on how your device shows up, you should be able to. However, if it is just a remote file system mount no. It would have to be a block of some type to my knowledge.

These articles may be old, but they’re still very relevant.

Subject: [Xen-API] Creating an SR from an already mounted moosefs share

 

Hi, I'm currently running XCP 1.6, and it has been running quite nicely.

Recently,  I had created a moosefs mount on the XCP host

e.g. /media/mfs.

 

Is it possible to create a SR that makes use of that directory I whose moosefs share I had mounted?
